Original Song Writing
Stepdad
Flip open the lid on the red box
Enjoy what's inside
But don't get caught
Because your step dad got that
For your mom on valentines day
You just screwed up his big plan
You didnt care that hes a 42 year old man
Being smart to wrench his life
Because he's moving in on your real dad's wife
Gonna poke holes in his water bed
Sugar in the lawnmower in the shed
Nair in his shampoo
And burn his clothes
So his love never grows
If he asks you if you had anything to do with it
Just tell him he's full of bullshit
Whats he gonna do?
Marry your mom and honestly say he loves you too?
Desert Highway
Pushed out the car, left by myself on the desert highway
Why'd it have to end this way? Tomorrow is so far away
A backpack and a canteen, hope the paper in my pocket's green
The federales wont find me this way, roaming through maguey
Federales quisiera que explicara, cómo conseguÃ* aquÃ* y terminé
This place aint so bad though, maybe I'll stay
The girl's gone and so are the State's familiarities
Mexico's looking a lot like home now, dusty and old and grey
Tomorrow is so far away, I've decided to stay
I'm gonna make my way to some Mexican village
The harmonica is airing out a lonesome tune
Just up over that hill, past that sand dune
There's a lizzard and a rattler
I'll be alright if I just move faster
Adios to America and my problems
Cómo se dice
I wont miss it very much anyway
I'll make it in life once I get off this desert highway
Wish the rearview miror could've told me lies before
But I got kicked out by that girl
I never knew her anyway
This place aint so bad though, my new name's Jose
Everyone's Thoughts
Sitting in a crowd of hundreds, watching a few perform
Stuff you could do, maybe do it better, who knew
Everyone you know is there, all the girls and all the guys
Its like they all see things through different eyes
Now its too late for that but you think about it still
You think about it because you are lonely
You sit in your basement watching tv by yourself
Thinking about how you dont want to be alone
Why you shouldnt be alone
Memories rush back through your mind
Girls from the past, its like turning back time
You sit alone and know your value
You return a movie to a beautiful employee
Thank God it was an artsy movie
You remember her blue eye makeup smile
Your life needs a shakeup
Everyone is thinking something, if you could know
Why cant you be like everyone you see
There's nothing left to believe
Except that time keeps moving and you keep losing
All by me, haha. Adios.

I can hear it. You just lack imagination giant.
I'm thinking it's like "Proud To Be An American" as sung by Billy Joe from Green Day, James Hetfield from Metallica and Spongebob Squarepants.

Really? Its straight out the noggin.
Yeah, I'll be making some tunes out these eventually. These are just some of hundreds of lyrics I have written. (Ask brad) haha.
Rule two: include how you feel. If it's just actions and observations then there is nothing people will connect with.
A song as art, or even popart, has to convey some emotion that the listener can relate to.
Was stepdad a comedy song? could you give a bit more information about the tracks.
